Fred,despite all that, it is a really fine tunic, I would be happy with it as an example and it did belong to an SS officer who had an interesting history serving in the SD, then the Cavalry and finally an NPEA school.)Plus it is made by a tailoring firm that made some of the finest tunics and caps.The tunic I once owned was made from the same type of wool materials.Quite honestly I think 3/4 of all the Waffen SS officer tunics out there were refurbished and or messed with to some degree post war.
